Looks like the Tortugas is expected to reach Panama today, but isn't on radar yet.

I just looked it up on marinetraffic.com and it appears to be just south east of Puerto Rico travelling at 17.7 knots. It's getting there!

Reach out to your MA. In this day and age digital signatures are everywhere and immediate. If your MINI landed yesterday he/she must be able to see the production code and confirm it for you. Then, hopefully, you'll be out of the VDC in a couple of days and they'll transport your car to the dealer. Fun times for you are almost here. Hang in there.

Dealer e-mailed me saying the car will be here on Monday or Tuesday.. meaning I'd go from order to receiving it in just over one month (signed paperwork 9/27). Almost can't believe it. TBH, I'm not that excited lol. I traded in an 08 for this car, it's practically the same. Mechanically not, but practically yes

Kyoo - that was fast! They didn't even put mine into production until a month after I ordered it. You're lucky - do you buy lottery tickets?

KilmetPT - it looks like ours will both be landing around the same day but on different sides of the country. As you say - patience, patience . . .
